October 25-29 Previews

House: Amber Tamblyn joins House for a multi-episode arc as Martha Masters, a brilliant but inexperienced third-year medical student whom Cuddy forces House to hire as a female team member in Thirteen's absence. In the midst of a tight senatorial re-election race, the New Jersey incumbent's campaign manager mysteriously falls ill with liver failure and temporary paralysis. After a surprising campaign announcement is made by the incumbent, House and the team look to the candidate to find clues about the patient's condition. Meanwhile, Foreman learns that Taub has a past connection to Masters, and in an effort to save his patient's life, House must make a critical decision that may compromise his relationship with Cuddy.

Glee: It's finally here! The Rocky Horror Glee Show!! Will gets the club to do a production of RH for the annual fall/winter play and in an attempt to woo Emma because it is her favorite movie. Finn and Rachel will be playing Brad and Janet, Kurt is Riff-Raff and everyone thought John Stamos was going to be Dr. Frank N. Furter but Mercedes will be playing him instead. Little dissappointed in this but I don't make all the decisions.

OTH: My favorite show is taking the week off. Probably so that it doesn't have to compete for viewers with Glee.

16&Pregnant: The new season opens up with Brooke from Texas who likes to race cars and she met her baby daddy at the track. They are living together at her house and things look like they will be super dramatic with these two.

ANTM: Designer Zac Posen surprises the girls at their beach house to inform them they will be wearing his fall 2010 collection during this week's runway challenge. The girls put their personality to the test when they shoot their very first commercial while wearing roller skates on the beach. Posen is also this week's guest judge.

Friday Night Lights: The (final) season premiere is Wednesday. I have heard absolutely nothing about what will be happening in this season. We'll just have to wait and see. It will air on DirecTV's 101 network at 9pm

Project Runway: It's Finale time!! The final 3 (Gretchen, Mondo and Andy) will be showing at Fashion Week and a winner will be crowned!

Mystery Question

This week's question comes to you in the form of a wordle! Now if you can read it you are a genius. Little hint, the capitalized words are the beginning of sentences.


Wordle: Questions

If you don't feel like figuring this out here's the question. What are your favorite things to do on the weekend? Watch re-runs of your favorite shows? Hang out with friends? Let me know. Maybe we will have something in common.

Finale Pt. 1 (Project Runway) Overview

In this week's half of the finale, Tim Gunn went to each of the four designer's homes to see what they were working on.
The first designer we visited was Andy South. His inspiration for his collection was Bhudda Park in Laos. Tim was concerned with his collection. Not that it was a big deal because he made into the top 3 and will be showing at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Yay! I really liked the snippet of his collection that he showed to the judges and his new piece that he had to create for the challenge.

Next up was Michael Costello. He drew his inspiration from the colors of sunsets and the textures of feathers. Tim's advice for him was to stop designing and edit what he had. He had a lot of extra pieces that he wasn't going to use and the ones that he was going to use were a little unfinished. In the end he showed three looks that were the same color and not very marvelous and thus, no Fashion Week for him. I was a little bit sad because he had worked so hard for it and his family has never really supported his love of design.

The third designer that we visited was Mondo. I have to say I liked his the most. He used a New Mexican circus/Day of the Dead theme in his collection and the pieces were all interesting. Tim shared my love for his collection. The judges did as well and he will be showing next week at Fashion Week.

Last, but not least, is Gretchen. Her inspiration was a mix of her western roots and worldly cultures. Tim thought that it could be a little costume-y and that it was all just a matter of taste.

As always, you can check out all the looks here. The order is: Andy, Gretchen, Michael, Mondo. Each designer had three looks.

Teen Mom Check-Up with Dr. Drew

In Teen Mom fashion, after the end of a season all the moms (and Catelynn) get together and talk about where they are in their lives after the events of the finale. I only caught snippets of the first hour because I was flipping between this and ANTM. The hour was dedicated to my favorite two girls, Maci and Farrah, so I was sad that I missed most of theirs. In summation:
  • Farrah and her mom are talking again. Her mother may be a crazy person but it's good that they are trying to work through their issues so that she can be someone Farrah can talk to about Sophia and Derek (baby daddy that died).
  • Maci and Kyle are back together. I like Kyle, but I wish that her and Ryan could work out their differences and be a family for Bentley.
  • Catelynn and Tyler have been going to therapy to get back to before Catelynn told Tyler about all the stuff that happened with her ex from Florida. Catelynn's mother is still a crazy person and doesn't respect her decision to give up Carly. But they are "working on that".
  • Amber and Gary have made no progress. At all. Although, they are back together and Chris is completely out of the picture. I don't know what is happening with the domestic abuse charges that are supposedly happening right now. They didn't talk about it.
Wish you well,

Week 7 (ANTM) Overview

This week the remaining eight girls were challanged to create a look that, if chosen, they would wear to the Grammys to be one of the Grammy Girls. Their looks had to be youthful but not too bold so that they would't distract from the artists up on stage.  Kayla was chosen as the challenge winner. I think that even after only watching one episode she is my favorite. She reminds me of Hayley Williams of Paramore a little bit. What do you think?

<--Hayley         Kayla-->


For the actual photo shoot, the girls portrayed iconic fashion designers. To see the photos from this week you can go to each girl's portfolio to check them out. All of the pictures that have been taken throught this season are in them as well. Liz had best photo this week while Ester and Kendal were in the bottom 2. In the end, the judges questioned whether or not Kendal wanted it and she was sent home. Francesco Carrozzini was the photographer and the guest judge this week.

October 18-22 Previews

House: After a newborn experiences inexplicable breathing problems and liver failure, House and the team look at the baby's mother, Abbey's, own medical history for possible clues. When the team makes a discovery about her newborn's health, Abbey is presented with a difficult decision that could potentially affect both her baby's health and her own. Meanwhile, following Cuddy's directive, House challenges Foreman and Taub to hire a female doctor to join the team. When Cuddy asks House to babysit her daughter, both House and Wilson learn a few hard lessons in parenting.

Glee: No new episode this week :( They are teasing us so that more people will watch next week's Rocky Horror ep. Which I am super pumped for. I already requested that day off of work so I (hopefully) won't miss it. Fox.com has some pretty grand previews up if you wanna check those out. But really, who doesn't? You can see them here.

OTH: Tree Hill must be ahead of the normal world because this week, they are doing their Halloween episode. Looks like Katie come back from the dead to haunt Quinn and Clay, Mia and Haley are hosting an open mic night and Nathan is starting a new career.

Project Runway: Well I guess I was wrong. There are 2 episodes left not just one. I knew that there only being one episode left sounded weird but I wasn't sure. This week they narrow down from four contestants to three and we see what people have been working on!

ANTM: The girls head over to the Grammy Museum and the CEO of the recording company states that one of them will be chosen as the "Grammy Girl" for this year's Grammy Awards. In the photo shoot, they are to portray iconic fashion designers. Guest judge and photographer, Francesco Carrozzini.

Teen Mom: This week is the reunion with Dr. Drew.

Unplanned Parenthood (House) Overview

This week our patient was not one, but two people! Gasp! We have a mother, Abbey (played by Jennifer Grey. See DWTS, Dirty Dancing, ect.), and her new baby. The problem is that the child is having breathing problems and thus the drama ensues.

There are three main story lines in this episode.
(1) House has to babysit for Cuddy. He tries to get Wilson to do it for him so that he can go to the hospital and see what's wrong with the other baby. While they are outside arguing, Rachel (Cuddy's kid) eats a dime and trashes the living room. House doesn't tell Cuddy about the dime and sneaks her in to the hospital to do an ultrasound of Rachel's stomach to see where the dime is. In order to extend the time he has with Rachel, House messes with Wilson's radiation badge so that Cuddy will have to stay at the hospital. He gives her a laxative and after 4 hours, there's still no dime. This leads us to believe that she didn't really eat a dime, but in the very end Cuddy finds it in her diaper.

(2) The sick baby has dialated bile ducts, which leads teh team to think that it is a liver problem. They treat her for that but she doesn't get better. So, they hook her up to a blood transfusion of mom's blood and she miraculously seems healthier. As soon as they take her off the blood, she get sick again and the team decides it is a vascular malformation. Turns out its not that either. This can only mean one thing. Mom has something that she passed along to the baby. Answer: Melanoma. For some reason however, Abbey didn't feel sick at all. Turns out she also had lung cancer. Basically her cancer was treating her cancer. The team suggested they do surgery on her and start chemo on the baby so that both could live. Abbey refused and told them to just keep giving the baby her blood because it was treating her cancer. Abbey died of a pulmonary embolism later, but they had harvested enough blood to treat the baby.

(3) The hunt is still on for another doctor to replace 13. Foreman hire's someone but House fires her before even meeting her. He then instructs Taub to find a replacement. Taub starts talking to Dr. Cheng about taking the position. House is okay witht this but Taub just thinks it is all part of the game so he doesnt hire her. At the very end when he asks her to join she rejects him saying, "you acted like a child during this whole process. I hate kids."

We're In A New York State of Mind (Project Runway) Overview

In this second-to-last episode, the designers were challenged to make a look inspired by NYC. The four who weren't eliminated would proceed to showing at The Lincoln Center. Of course, only three will actually show so next week someone else will be eliminates as well. PR alum Christian Siriano was the guest judge for this challenge. He was the winner of the fourth season of Project Runway and my favorite from that season.

I am sad to say that April was sent home this week. I don't think her design was bad, per say, but it didn't fit the inspiration they were given. That means that Michael C., Mondo, Gretchen and Andy are the final four. All photos from last night's episode can be seen here and if you've missed almost the whole season (like me), you can catch up with the scorecard showing the designs and when your favorite may have been eliminated.

We Gon' Light It Up

Okay. This week's question has nothing to do with TV. Mostly because I've had a song stuck in my head all day and all I've wanted to do was dance. So...
What's your favorite song to party to?
It doesn't have to be today's hottest pop song or even an upbeat one. Just a song that makes you want to dance and have fun. Mine right now is "Dynamite" by Taio Cruz. I have listened to it like a hundred times today alone. Let me know what your jam is. Should be interesting.

Wish you well,

Glee Songs, Animoto Style



The subtitles were too small to read so here they are.
  • With Puck in juvie, that means Sam's in!
  • Despite their differences, Santana and Mercedes pair up.
  • Tina helps Mike find his voice.
  • After changing his mind about performing with Sam, Kurt performed solo.
  • With this offensive performance there was no way they'd win. But that was the point.
  • Winners! Their rendition of "Lucky" was marvelous.
  • With their performance of "Happy Days Are Here Again"/ "Get Happy" Rachel lets Kurt know he's not alone.
Create your own video slideshow at animoto.com.

Duets (Glee) Overview

So this week the kids were challenged to pair up and work on duets. In a slight twist, Puck was absent from this week's episode because he is in juvie for stealing the ATM from a convenience store. Thus, in his absence there is an odd number of kids. How does this work, you say? Well, Sam has officially joined the club! With his recent injury I figured his joining would be inevitable. Finn and Rachel pair up (obviously), Tina and Mike (after Artie turned her down because he is with Brittany), Santana and Mercedes (even though they can't stand each other. Santana just REALLY wanted to win.), Artie and Brittany (they withdrew from the competition), Sam and Quinn (I spot a budding romance!) and Kurt just performed solo after he decided against working with Sam.

In the very beginning, we are thrown into Brittany's bedroom for some interesting (to say the least) happenings between her and Santana. Brittany suggests that they should do a duet for Glee and Santana shoots her down. Maybe because she isn't ready to publicly embrace their "relationship" or whatever is happening between them.

After being turned down by Santana Brittany goes to Artie and asks him to be her duet partner/boyfriend. He doesn't understand why but accepts anyway. Tina and Mike get into a fight about how he doesn't want to do a duet because he isn't really a singer and how they never go on any normal dates.

Kurt initially wanted to work with Sam for the duet and Sam was on board. But after getting slushied and Kurt's dad had a talk with Kurt about how maybe he was pushing the kid too hard, Kurt dissolved their partnership and Sam started trying to convince Quinn to be his partner. After telling Sam that they were no longer going to work together, he does his performance of  "Le Jazz Hot". This was my second favorite number. Finn and Rachel's "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" is definitely my number one. What can I say, I love them.

Finn and Rachel are pretty sure they are going to win. Rachel realizes that Sam has to win in order for him to feel accepted into the group and they spend the majority of the episode trying to find a way to lose. This comes by way of a super offensive rendition of "With You, I Am Born Again " dressed as a priest and a nun respectively.

Santana and Mercedes perform their duet, "River Deep, Mountain High". I'm pretty sure Santana has some sort of problem because she is SUPER obsessed with winning the free trip to Breadstix.

Tina and Mike do an uber cute version of "Sing!" from A Chorus Line. I'd have to say this is my third favorite.

While practicing for their duet, Artie realizes that he isn't over Tina and tries to leave. Brittany has other plans. "Before our duet, we're gonna do it." I think that says enough. The reason they pull out of the competition is because Brittany was just using him so she could win/make Santana a little jealous.

After Finn and Rachel perform, Quinn and Sam do their duet. Their chemistry was super palpable and because everyone voted for themselves except Finn and Rachel, they won. Their trip to Breadstix was "so not a date" according to Quinn at first. However, after having a cute little conversation about how he thought she was really brave for coming back, she changes her mind and makes him pay, "a gentleman always pays on the first date".

At the end of the episode, Rachel and Kurt sing a mash-up of "Happy Days Are Here Again" and "Get Happy" so that Kurt will know that he isn't alone and the glee kids love him.

Teen Mom Finale Overview

In he season finale last night, the four girls' storylines were sort of wrapped up but not enough for this to be the end of the show.

Maci: Because she and Kyle are now broken up, you would think that she would move back home to Chattanooga. But, that is not the case. She is going to stay in Nashville and keep working and going to school there. Ryan and her spent the majority of the episode trying to work out a visitation schedule. Ryan ended up getting one more day than he had before. Maci had a hard time giving up another day but after realizing that Bentley needs both of his parents around.

 Amber: Apparently, she has a new boyfriend that I didn't know about. His name is Chris and he seems just as gross as Gary. Amber and Gary spent the majority of the episode trying to work out a visitation schedule but in reality they were just fighting and being childish. Gary threatened to get Leah taken away if Chris was being to big a part of her life. This doesnt really make a whole lot of sense to me. But then again, Amber and Gary don't make a whole lot of sense to me.


 
 Farrah: Farrah spent the majority of the episode moving out of her apartment and into her mom's rental house which is right across the street from her old house. Her mom tried to give her all of these fees for moving in early and a ton of tenant paperwork. The sad part is that the house wasn't even ready to be moved in to so it still needed painted and fixed up in some rooms. Although there was all this major drama, her mom set her up on a date with her hairdresser's son and their relationship looks like it's headed in a good direction.


Carly w/ Brandon & Theresa.
If I could've found a good picture of her
with Catelynn & Tyler I would've used it.

Catelynn: Okay... As much as I hate Catelynn and Tyler in every other episode this season, I found myself smiling during their segments. This episode was mainly focused on them going to see Carly, their daughter that they gave up for adoption, on her first birthday. Her adoptive parents live in West Virinia and Catelynn and Tyler live in Michigan so it was a long drive for them. They celebrated with a picnic in the park. When it was time to go home the next day, they gave Brandon and Theresa a scrapbook of them and a recordable book with their voices so that Carly would always have them in her life.

Massage Therapy (House) Overview

So this episode was pretty interesting. I don't remember all of the different diagnoses that they went through until they found out the truth but I'm pretty sure it was a kind of long list. The episode starts out with Margaret, our patient this week, in her house on a stormy night making dinner for her husband. Somewhere in the house a door slams shut and her husband walks in and asks her if she is alright. She then throws up and collapses on the floor in a great deal of stomach pain.

There is a new cast member this week, whose name is Kelly, that Chase hired as a replacement for 13. House has a theory that he hired her because she looks like Cameron/his mother. She isn't really qualified to be a part of the team and Foreman makes that well known. She ends up quitting at the end of the episode before House fires her.

When House asks her things about her past, she concocts a lie about having a past abusive relationship and that her ex-husband poisoned her dog. She says that she goes to a support group in Trenton for abuse victims on Tuesdays and that she used to be on the cycling team when she was a student at UMass. This doesn't really explain her 8 previously broken ribs and her stomach pain. None of this turns out to be true because when they check with the hospital and the university, they have no record of performing the operation and that she was ever a student there. She confesses to none of this being true after the team confronts her about it. Everything is relatively normal until she start halucinating. This leads House to the true answer. She is a schizophrenic who stopped taking her medication and is going through withdrawl. Her husband contemplates leaving her because she lied to him about her whole past.

The other underlying storyline in this episode was House's massage therapist and what Cuddy thinks about her. You see, she is a hooker that House used to sleep with but doesn't anymore because he is dating Cuddy. She isn't confortable with the "slept with" part and want him to stop seeing her. House doesn't want to because she is the only person out of the 15 different massage therapists he's seen that makes his leg feel better. In an attempt to make her feel better about it, House sends her a massage therapist who turns out to be gay and not speak a whole lot of English. This little episode forces them to face the reservations they have about their relationship and eachother.

Preview Overview October 11-15

Glee: This week's episode, the kids pair up and do duets and there is a little competition involved. The main focus is the newly formed Artie-Tina-Mike love triangle and the reappearance of Sam. Rachel and Finn throw the competition so that Sam has a better chance of wining. Based off of the information I've gathered, I think that he joins the club because of his injury.

OTH: This is going to be an interesting episode. It is the first time The CW has combined two shows into one episode type thing. I'm hoping it doesn't turn out like a Disney Channel special. OTH and Life Unexpected are coming together for music purposes. Haley books Mia a show in Portland (where Life Unexpected is set) so that she can get away from Chase (her ex-lover) and Alex (mega-slut man-stealer). Everyone is alive (including Clay and Quinn yay!) and will be attending Mia's show.

Project Runway: This week's episode will determine which 3 contestants will show at Lincoln Center in the final. This means double elimination!

House: This week's patient is a lady named Margaret who won't stop throwing up. Yum. Turns out she isn't who she says she is and the team looks into her past to help cure her. Chase hires someone to replace 13 and House doesn't give her the warmest welcome. Also, a visit from House's massage therapist forces Huddy to face the reservations in their relationship.

ANTM: The remaining models are doing group shots in motion this week. I haven't been watching so I haven't picked a girl that I want to win yet for this season. Nevertheless, there looks like there is gonna be some drama amongst the pairings and I can't wait to watch!

Wish you well,

TV Couples. Who's Your Fave?

In every show there is that one couple that everyone either loves or hates. I personally ship Naley and Finchel hardcore but I'm not the only person who loves them. So who are your favorites? It can be from any show and any time. Maybe you only watch old school cartoons and are in love with Fred and Daphne. Let me know. It should be interesting.

A Look In The Line (Project Runway) Overview

I know, right? My repertoire of shows is expanding! On this episode of Project Runway, the remaining six designers we challenged to create a mini-line that would be influenced by Heidi Klum's active wear line for New Balance.

Gretchen, Christopher and Michael were in the bottom three and Andy, Mondo and April were in the top.
In the end, Christopher went home and Andy won the challenge. Instead of just one of the looks being put into Heidi's line, all three were.

This link has pictures of all the designs from last night's episode. They are grouped by into threes by who designed them. There are 18 total looks. Andy (1-3), April (4-6), Christopher (7-9), Gretchen (10-12), Michael (13-15), Mondo (16-18).

Grilled Cheesus (Glee) Overview

So I think this episode of Glee has become one of my favorites of all time. Mostly because it actually had a storyline that was executed properly and the song choices were great. I don't really want to write a whole 5 page thing about every breath the characters took so here are the high points.
  • Finn thinks he has found a direct line to God through his Grilled Cheesus (grilled cheese that has a burn mark that looks like Jesus' face). With it, he makes three wishes 1) For them to win their first football game, 2) That he'll get farther than second base with Rachel and 3) for him to become starting quarterback again.
  • Kurt's dad has a heart attack and that's why he is in the hospital. Everybody sings a song for Burt in prayer even though Kurt isn't really happy about it. He doesn't believe in God because of the views that Christians have on the gay community.
  • Sue and Will have it out about the fact that the glee kids are doing songs about spirituality. Makes sense because it is a public school but her overreaction is kinda hilarious. “Well William, if your kids want to praise Jesus in class, I suggest that they enroll at Sweet Mary Holy Mother of God Academy on I love Jesus Street, but not here. This country is not a monarchy, William. Trust me, I’ve tried.” -Sue Sylvester.
  • Kurt re-evaluates how he spends his time, seeing that he doesn't spend as much time as he should with his dad. The flashbacks during "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" made me cry.
  • When Finn realizes that his sandwich isn't a link to God after talking to Ms. Pillsbury about his guilt over Sam getting hurt in their game, he sings "Losing My Religion" in the library. I have to say, his naivete went a little too overboard this episode. He isn't really that dumb, I hope.
  • We see some more of Sue's sister, Jean, in this episode. They talk about religion and Jean asks if Sue wants her to pray for her and Sue says yes.
  • The episode closes with the club singing "One of Us" and Burt sort of waking up. (Yay!)
Overall, I think that the episode didn't shove religion down our throats, it showed us how each character felt about a higher power. Not everyone has to believe in God, just something bigger than themselves.

Diagnosis: Best episode yet.

Too Much Too Soon (Teen Mom) Overview

Okay, so I only watched the last half of this week's episode because I got home at 10:20 and then we had search for the remote for another 10 minutes. Basically,
  • Maci and Kyle broke up. I don't know how I feel about this. I liked Kyle, but deep down I want her and Ryan to be together. Even though he is a jerk.
  • Catelyn and Tyler had nothing that happened to them as usual. Why can't they get kicked off the show already.
  • Amber and Gary are no longer together (again). He attempted to apologize (again) and was shot down by Amber (again).
  • Farrah took her mom to counseling with her so that they could talk about Sophia's dad. Debra seemed unsympathetic (as usual) about the whole situation even though he meant a lot to Farrah even though they were broken up at the time of his death.
*Because I got home late, I missed both Glee and OTH. I'll try and post those summaries ASAP*

Unwritten (House) Overview

I know, it's a miracle. I have something to write about that isn't Glee or OTH based. This is the first episode of House that I have watched this season and in a long time. I really don't know why I haven't been watching it this season because it's not on at the same time as anything this year. (Last year it was on at the same time as OTH. Priorities.) Anyway, on tho the overview!

This week's patient was Alice Hunter, a novelist for young adults, who writes detective fiction. The show opens up with her sitting at her desk finishing up the final pages of her newest book. She is talking with this boy named Jack (who isn't real) about how this is her last book and she isn't going to let him read it. She reaches for a small hand gun and is in the process of killing herself when she has a seizure.

The show then cuts to House and Wilson talking about how House doesn't think his and Cuddy's relationship will last long because they don't have anything in common. House then goes to conduct his first interview with Alice about why she tried to kill herself and she get defensive and tries to leave only to be put on psych hold for 36 hours.

While on their "date", House and Cuddy go to Alice's house to look for clues and end up talking with the housekeeper about her habits. House finds a can of tuna in the trash which makes him think that mercury poisoning is the reason for her seizures. When they return to the hospital, House tries to get Cuddy to perform the mercury poisoning tests because Alice has requested a female doctor. While Chase and Taub are about to administer the mercury poisoning treatment, Alice has another seizure.

It has now been established that it isn't mercury poisoning. They take her in to get an MRI to look for a tumor and the magnetic field causes the screws in her leg to super-heat and giver her 3rd degree burns on her leg. Supposedly, the screws are from a skiing accident, but really they are from a car accident.

When House goes to visit Alice, he says that if she cooperates with the tests that the staff wants to run he'll help her kill herself. He gives her a needle full of "deadly narcotics" and she shoots it into her leg. What he really gave her was a sedative and because she used it, her psych hold was extended another 24 hours.

House has a theory that Alice is really Helen from the novel and he uses the typewriter ribbon and the MRI machine to get the rest of the novel printed so he can look for clues. The new diagnosis is lupus, which doesn't really mean anything because, "It's never lupus". While House and Cuddy are on a double date with Wilson and his girlfriend, House realizes that it wasn't a skiing accident but a car accident and that the real cause of her sickness is hypothyroidism.

In the end, Alice's real name is Helen, Jack (main character of her books) was her son who died in said car accident . House lies and tells her that Jack had a brain aneurysm so that she would stop feeling guilty. Alice (Helen) has surgery to fix her hypothyroidism and all is well. House and Cuddy have a cute little moment at the end where she tells him that she doesn't want their relationship to be normal because then it would be boring.

Diagnosis: Why haven't I been watching this?!?!

Preview Overview Glee and OTH

OTH: In the lovely little "Tree Hill in 20" preview that the CW does, here's what's been revealed:
  • Brooke's mom is trying to find a way to make the whole "I'm in prison" thing work for them as good publicity.
  • Nathan said something along the lines of "I'm still going to play basketball".
  • Alex is a mega slut.
And that's all I picked up from it. If you don't believe me, you can check it out here.

There was also a clip released from next week's episode that showed Brooke and Julian at some estate where Julian wanted them to get married. Not much was revealed in terms of general storyline but it had a fluffy little moment for all you Brulian fans.

Glee: This week's episode is the religion episode. I didn't actually watch the previews for it but thanks to Wikipedia and Fox Broadcasting, I have a pretty good understanding of what is supposed to happen.
Finn sees the face of Jesus in a grilled cheese sandwich. Perhaps a reference to this story about a woman in Florida with Mary on a sandwich.
Kurt's dad finds himself in the hospital in a life or death situation. This sparks the rest of the glee kids to rally around Kurt in his time of need.
Mercedes brings Kurt to church with her.

This week's songs include:
"Losing My Religion"
"Papa, Can You Hear Me?"
"One of Us"
"I Look to You"
"Only the Good Die Young"
"Bridge over Troubled Water"
"I Want to Hold Your Hand"

Wish you well,

Poll Friday, Round Two!

Hello! Since it is Friday, it's time for another poll question!

This week's isn't really a poll with definite choices, it's more of a "what do you want out of this?" question. So...
What shows do you want to see on here other than what already gets posted?

Let me know what you think. I am open to any new shows so don't be afraid to mention your fav :)

Wish you well,
St. Ann

*Also, in a little bit of an update concerning the lack of posts this week*
The only reason I haven't done any OTH recaps is because it is on at the same time as Glee and I must prioritize. I would just watch them online and then do a post, but the CWTV doesn't post the new episodes until the next week and the streaming is really bad. I still haven't seen the majority of the first two episodes because of this issue.
